Royce Hunter has never wanted for anything; he does as he pleases and never cares about the consequences because he knows his wealthy father will always bail him out. But what happens when this over-privileged playboy is challenged to live in a dilapidated house with an infestation of stray cats? Between struggling to exist without his usual comforts, his sudden infatuation with the colorful character that is local veterinarian Jacob Williams, and being haunted by the ghosts of his past, Royce soon begins to realize that getting to the finish line might be harder than he first thought. The stakes get higher when Royce finds out he is being forced to play along in order to avoid a huge public scandal that could out him and bring humiliation to his family's name. Believing that his cousin and their college buddies have set him up for certain failure, Royce is determined to follow the rules and make the best of a bad situation. With his every move being watched, can he complete the task set before him? And if he wins the game, will he lose Jacob? Whatever the outcome may be, Royce is facing the greatest challenge of his life. Please Note: This book contains adult language & steamy adult activities, it is intended for 18+ Adults Only.
